Dve elfské sestry padnú do zajatia v utajenom svete férov, kde na ne číha nebezpečenstvo aj láska. Nenechajte si ujsť knihu nominovanú ako najlepšia romantasy za rok 2024 podľa hlasovania čitateľov na najväčšej knihomoľskej sieti Goodreads Choice Awards!Pred tisíc rokmi obývali svet tri druhy bytostí: féri, elfovia a ľudia. Féri a ľudia však už dnes patria len do mýtov a legiend, zatiaľ čo elfovia uviazli v nekonečnej vojne o zvyšné územia. Yeeran, plukovníčka elfskej armády, pozná iba život plný násilia a utrpenia. Jej sestra Lettle je veštkyňa, ktorej mágia sľubuje obom sestrám inú budúcnosť, no jej proroctvá sa ešte nenaplnili. No potom Yeeran spraví osudnú chybu, za čo ju čaká trest v podobe doživotného vyhnanstva, a Lettle sa ju rozhodne do neprebádanej oblasti za hranicami Elfskej ríše nasledovať. V divočine narazia na obrovského obeaha, zázračného tvora, ktorého elfovia využívajú pri výrobe zbraní. A práve počas lovu obeaha sa stane nemožné – sestry zajme skupinka férov. Yeeran s Lettle čaká ako väzenkyne neľahká úloha: poradiť si s politikou férskeho dvora, vymyslieť, ako utečú, a najmä zvoliť si medzi vernosťou svojej elfskej vlasti a opojným férskym svetom. Medzi tým, čo káže povinnosť a čo im našepkávajú srdcia.
